Miami man arrested, accused of groping woman in elevator, exposing himself

Summary by The Miami Editorial Desk · Based on reporting by Allyson Castillo, WSVN 7 News · July 24, 2026 · 2 min read

A 33-year-old man was arrested Saturday night after police say he followed a woman into an apartment building elevator, groped her twice and later exposed himself in a hallway confrontation witnessed by a neighbor. Delroy Ambursley Lindo, was taken into custody Saturday night at Southwest 14th Avenu

Why this matters in The Miami

The arrest of Delroy Ambursley Lindo brings attention to the safety concerns of women in Miami's densely populated neighborhoods, such as Little Havana. The fact that Lindo has three prior convictions for indecent exposure-related offenses raises questions about the effectiveness of the justice system in preventing repeat offenses. The incident also highlights the importance of community vigilance, as it was a neighbor who came to the victim's aid and called the police. The proximity of the incident to residential areas and the fact that Lindo was seen fleeing on foot suggests that he may have been familiar with the neighborhood, making it even more concerning for local residents. As the case moves forward, it will be worth watching how the court handles Lindo's prior convictions and whether additional measures will be taken to ensure public safety in the area.
